you were speeding around a curvy road, in the rain, while not wearing your seatbelt, in an old truck with a high center of gravity

glad your okay... but is putting on the seat belt too much of a hassle?

Glad you're OK.

Next time don't do what you did, putting in a lower gear actually made your rer tires spinn faster out of control. Rear skid=off the gas, stear counter the slide, once you regain some control break very gently to scrub off the excess speed. Breaking too hard will unload your rear completely and have the same result as what happened to you.

best of luck

dont blame the guy. REMEMBER, he also drives a bmw. maybe for that breif moment in time he thought he was in the BMW. unfortunately, a Tacoma cant handle like ur 3er.

you were already out of control and thought shifting to 2nd was a good idea?

maybe he was on a panic. but good for the OP he's okay. if it was raining, he should have just used the bimmer instead.
